the 8.9 magnitude monster quake struck japan friday afternoon. millions of survivors are without power, many homeless. highways and suburban streets had literally been split open. it all started early friday morning 15 miles below the ocean surface. the earth's plates shifted one opening up over the other. that led to a 23 foot tsunami. boats and shipping containers tossed around like toys, whole buildings collapsed. this oil refinery exploded and power was cut to the nuclear power plant. experts believe the quake knocked out the power to the primary and backup water pump that cools the plant's uranium core. if there's no water, there's no cooling and that could trigger a release of radioactive steam into the environment. or if the level drops enough the core is exposed and that could cause a meltdown. >> travelers trying to get to japan waited anxiously at san francisco international airport. japan airlines brought an empty plane to san francisco to pick up hundreds of passengers bound for tokyo's airport. one left with almost 300 people on boar
